On Saturday, it was observed that the MRS outlet along the Kubwa Expressway in Abuja had implemented the new price template. This marks a ₦70 to ₦80 per litre hike from the previous rates of ₦860 and ₦880 per litre in both cities. The price adjustment follows Dangote Refinery’s March 19 announcement suspending the sale of petroleum products in Naira, a move that has since influenced pricing trends across the market.

Other filling stations in Abuja have also revised their pump prices. Empire Filling Station in Gwarinpa, for instance, raised its petrol price to ₦975 per litre from the previous ₦945. Meanwhile, as of Saturday evening, the retail pump price at Nigerian National Petroleum Company (NNPC) Limited stations remained at ₦880 per litre in Abuja.
